Very much enjoyed it

I've been going to Sugar Beach for 10 years now and enjoy it a great deal. Very quiet and laid back, with friendly staff and easy access to Christiansted. The sand is a little pebbly but still very nice, and access to the water and reef is superb. I've stayed in different units (2-, 3-, and 4-bedroom): the quality of each unit varies but most are well-maintained and very comfortable. The only one I'd recommend avoiding is 106 because clearly the owners don't care about it anymore and have not updated it in forever. The pool is excellent, as is the clubhouse and patio. Overall, a very nice place to stay.More

Room Tip: First floor has direct access to the beach; 2nd and 3rd floors have better views of the water.

For the past thirteen years we have been staying at Sugar Beach in either Unit 209 or 309 during the month of January or February. Every year we find the units extremely clean, well maintained and fully functional. The price has always been reasonable and we feel we get much more than we pay for. The two units are each two bedroom, two bath with a full kitchen. Unit 309 has the advantage of being top floor and high airy cathedral ceilings which really open up the condo to the beautiful Caribbean trade winds. Unit 209 gets the same breeze, is just as beautiful and is near ground level. We find the staff at Sugar Beach delightful. The men maintaining the pool and beach areas are all always friendly, hard working and quick to accommodate our every need. As we have never had any trouble with the units, we have little contact with the office. Unit 309 is in excellent condition and has gotten a lot of tender attention including a lot of new paint and furniture in the last year or so. Unit 209 is routinely maintained by the owner and in excellent condition. This year we stayed in 209 for almost three weeks and enjoyed every minute on STX. The weather was 80 degrees, plus or minus five, being 85 in the afternoon and 75 in the wee hours of the morning. We did not require any air conditioning as the breeze is beautiful and with the relaxing waves lapping on the beach, we slept well. With restaurants within walking distance, you really can just stay at the resort 24/7. We try to have breakfast on the balcony to enjoy the view of Christiansted Harbor and Buck Island. But, to us it's a lot more fun to get a car and go exploring after breakfast, as STX is entirely different than the other U.S. Virgin Islands. We have tried many restaurants and there is always some activity going on in early evening which tires us out and gets us to bed early. The beach and the sea at Sugar Beach are great, the water is warm enough to get in every day and the snorkeling and other water activities are plentiful. With the car, there are several other resort/beaches to make sure we visit every year as they are all beautiful. If it weren't for Sugar Beach Condos, we probably wouldn't go as often and be as comfortable. Thanks to Sugar Beach for another great vacation.R/Hal and Jean

I had the pleasure of staying at Sugar Beach in January 2014. It was wonderful. We stayed in a nice 2 bedroom unit. The condo was on the first floor. We literally walked right out to the beach. The decor was wonderful -- the kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed. There was a nice dining area on the porch as well as a table just outside the kitchen. The bathroom was one of the nicest I've seen in all my vacation rentals -- nice vanity, tub and shower.

The staff at Sugar Beach is very friendly -- everyone greets you. The pool is nice. It is located next to a Sugar Mill. There is a nice open area by the pool with grills for cooking.

I definately stay at Sugar Beach again.

Room Tip: All the units face the ocean. In our condo --one bedroom was in the front off the ocean and the second in the rear of the unit. Although both rooms were nice -- If you area travelling with others, be sure to win the coin flip and get the room which faces the ocean. It is so nice to awake to the sounds of the ocean.

We had a great time in Theater On The Beach! We were most pleased with the new kitchen,the kayak, and the beach facilities. We have two older teen girls and there was plenty do do on the premise and the island. People at the two closest restaurants were very friendly. Welikes the bio-luminescent kayak tour, the horseback riding and the sail to Buck Island. We relaxed in the condo, laid out on the beach (plenty of chairs) and hung out at the pool. Totally worth the stay!!

Thank you very much for your review - we're glad you enjoyed your stay at Sugar Beach Resort. We are so pleased that you found a particular unit that you like.

It sounds like you had a perfect combination of activity and relaxation! We hope you all can come back and do it all again very soon.

Sugar Beach…. Where to start? I absolutely LOVE Sugar Beach and the island of St. Croix! I can’t think of a better place to stay with such amazing access to the beach. We keep returning and it’s always like coming home. We have stayed in a number of units here, each one unique in its own way. The owners put their personal touches on them & their pride shows.

From the third floor units with their awesome breezes & unbeatable views (I personally recommend units 312 or 313 both have lofts for sleeping) to the ground floor units’ just steps away from the beach; they all have been great. All of the units we have stayed in have had fully stocked kitchens (No food of course), with everything we could need for a comfortable stay and never need to eat out, a few blocks away there are some grocery stores, Food Town is my choice. However if you do wish to venture out, there are tons of places to try that are must. Next door to Sugar Beach within walking distance is a restaurant called Breezes.

This time since it was just my husband & myself we stayed in a ground floor studio unit (#112); we were literally steps away from the beach. Sand between our toes & the sun on our face was just what we needed, not to mention living life on “Island time!”

The most difficult part about staying at Sugar Beach; was having to decide if we wanted to swim in the ocean or the sparkling pool. We did both of course! The pool area has a sugar mill, comfortable lounge chairs, tables, and a grill area for the grill master in every guy to cook on! The pool lights stayed on at night while my husband & I took a late night swim. I don’t like to go in the ocean after dark, I’m a chicken!

Starting with our arrival at the airport, being handed free rum samples to our last day there; everybody was so friendly and welcoming. We did not want to return home to the snow & cold. I completely understand how & why so many people come for a visit and decide to relocate to this island. Each time we visit, leaving just gets harder & harder.

My first visit to St. Croix was in 1998 with my entire family including my then 6 year old child & 90 year old grandmother. We have stayed at Sugar Beach each time. I can say things have evolved over the years & I am so very pleased with the changes. We had a chance to meet the new manager this visit; who was an absolute delight. I definitely could see change; there was a sense of team involvement from all of the staff. I was impressed with the fact that he was onsite as we arrived, when we woke up he was leading and working with the staff as they groomed the beach each morning, and available when we had any questions his staff didn’t have an answer for. You could see the respect he & his staff had for one another. I was very pleased with his availability to both the guests & his staff.

We also had a chance to meet some of the owners who were there for a meeting. They were friendly & welcoming. There was a genuine community feeling amongst them & a willingness to offer any suggestions they had on new things to do or try. One of the owners, a 68 year old woman had recently tried skydiving which was new on the island; she recommended we give them a call, we did.

While my husband jumped out of a perfectly good airplane at 10,000 feet for the first time… I stayed on the beach & took pictures! He Loved it!

We will definitely be back & we will be staying at Sugar Beach!

Room Tip: All of the rooms face the ocean with balcony's & Amazing views.
First floor has direct access to the beach, while upper floors have refreshing cross breezes.

I had the opportunity to travel with family to St Croix in January 2014. We were 4 adults and stayed in unit 313 at Sugar Beach. I highly recommend both that unit and Sugar Beach Resort. The unit, although listed as a one bedroom, has a loft with two twin beds (can push together and I was told the office will provide a conversion kit to turn into king size bed although we didn't try that) and it's own miniature half bath. There is also full tiled bath on main level and queen size bed in master bed. It was perfect for 4 adults - and would be great for a couple and two kids as well. The unit itself was clean, very comfortable and just plain sweet. Furnished with wicker furniture and island decor it was well appointed and we found everything we needed including beach towels, wifi access, tons of books, and an amazing balcony with table and chairs looking directly out onto the pristine waters (still can't get over that amazing turquoise color - and the view from the 3rd floor is superb) where we spent much time and every meal (when we weren't out exploring some of the local restaurants). Kitchen had all the essentials which was great as I enjoy cooking. Morning and evening beach strolls starting right in front of the condo were a highlight. As was watching the amazing kite surfers right in front of the units doing fantastic tricks - although I think the daily diving pelicans beat the surfers. I also loved early mornings curled up reading in the chair on the balcony feeling the island breezes and ocean right there. Speaking of breezes - I am not very fond of air conditioning and was delighted to find the open balcony doors along with opening the sliding door in the back bedroom created a great breeze through the house and made things very comfortable. On real warm nights turning the ceiling fan or room fan in the loft made sleeping very comfortable as well without the use of A/C. Re: swimming at the unit - There is a large swatch of sea grass in the water in front which took me a little bit of getting used to - however didn't stop me from going in the water. And, once I got used to it, it was fine - and I liked playing around in it. (you can avoid it by staying more shallow or walking a bit up the beach if you prefer) - and of course if you prefer they also have a pool at the resort. Found the staff at Sugar Beach to be extremely friendly and helpful - from management to the wonderful woman who clean the units. Other guests were also very friendly. Overall a wonderful, relaxing, easy, kick back, comfortable vacation. I plan on returning!

Room Tip: I think all the rooms faced the ocean. I loved the 3rd floor as I think the view is even better and stairs were fine for me. however, I suspect any unit will have a good view.
